  • Sea Salt, Rock Salt and Vacuum Salt – below.Sea Salt is harvested through evaporation of sea water in large reservoirs in the tropic and sub-tropic countries.
  • Rock Salt is extracted from large mines, which in Europe lie 400 to 1200 metres below the ground.
  • Vacuum Salt is Rock Salt which is extracted by pumping water down into salt deposits creating a brine solution. The solution is then pumped to the surface and chemically cleaned before evaporating the water under vacuum.
